Along the way, there have been new versions that were both offbeat (Bill Frisell and Marcus Miller have recorded jazz versions) and, frankly, mind-blowing (Marilyn Manson on his 1995 tour with Danzig, Sheila E. during a 2017 appearance on The Late Show).

Gary Clark Jr. also covered it for 2017's Justice League movie, though he admitted to needing a lyric sheet to complete the session. "I don't know what 'toe-jam football' is, but I'll sing the s--- out of it," he told Rolling Stone. "I printed out the lyrics and I went for it."

Prince did his own take too, but – in a typically iconoclastic move – he took pains to explain that he was never all that much into the Beatles. Clark, on the other hand, had a much different feeling: "I just hope that when Paul and Ringo [Starr] hear it, they dig it," he said. "That's all you can hope for."

Here's a look back at the history of covers of the Beatles' "Come Together."

Ike and Tina Turner
From: Come Together (1970)

Ike and Tina Turner jumped on the bandwagon early, releasing a new version just 16 months after the Beatles. Their scorching take reached No. 21 on the Billboard R&B chart.

Diana Ross
From: Everything Is Everything (1970)

Diana Ross opened Side Two of her second solo album with "Come Together" just one month after her old band the Supremes, now led by Jean Terrell, issued their update on 1970's New Ways but Love Stays.

John Lennon
From: Concert Performance (1972)

Lennon introduced "Come Together" by saying, "You might remember this better than I do." It was the only Beatles song covered as part of his One to One concerts at Madison Square Garden.

Kate Bush
From: Concert Performance (1977)

Before she rose to fame as a solo star, Kate Bush briefly led the KT Bush band. They played a mixture of originals like "James and the Cold Gun" and covers, including "Come Together."
